TL;DR: In this article, the challenges to the basic curriculum reform and the relevant strategies through the analysis of educational phenomena of mainland China in recent years are explored, and the challenges and relevant strategies for curriculum reform are discussed.
Abstract: With the implementation of the New Curriculum, conflicts between new and old ideas are bound to arise. Voices supporting and protesting the reform will accompany the whole process.

The present paper explores the challenges to the basic curriculum reform and the relevant strategies through the analysis of educational phenomena of mainland China in recent years.
